Formally, Marie's Kidney Cancer...
The diagnosis is in, with the exception of a few twists and turns, it is CLL, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. The address is the same, prayerfaithandhope.blogspot.com

Please...

I continue to think about this subject. Unforgiveness is one of the major hindrances that can hinder your healing. Listen to what Jesus says in Mark 11:25-26. "And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him and [let it drop](leave it, let it go), in order that your Father who is in heaven may also forgive you your [own] failings and shortcomings and let them drop. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your failings and shortcomings." Happy New Year 2011, I still think this an important message! A quote by Author: Tami Hoag 2007... What purpose does it serve to hold that anger? What good does it do? Hatred is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die of it."

An Opinion... Isn't it amazing that almost everyone has an opinion to offer about the bible (as well as other subjects), and yet so few have studied it (or the subject)?R. C. Sproul, skywriting.net If only one would read before speaking, they would not look so foolish. Yet, I don't want to get in anyone's face... so I keep dropping hints. Does it help? I hope so...)

What a sunrise!

This morning I woke up to the most beautiful sunrise. At 6 a.m. I went outside to take a picture in this very cold weather. The photo is beautiful in my camera... but my brain isn't working so that I can get it onto this new laptop. Maybe tomorrow. Bright mandarin orange, with silver tip snow clouds coming into view above the sunrise.

Then I spent the early morning making up my broccoli drink, and a protien drink for the next three days. My tongue is still sore from chemo week, and trying to keep carbs out of my diet so that my glucose will lower... so, drinks for now. Tomorrow I go into the doctor (actually two doctors) and hopfully will have medicine adjusted again so that it won't be so difficult. I have three pairs of glasses that I am rotating so that I can see, and sometimes two pair at once. What a picture, I remind myself of my mother. I am so glad I did not tell her how funny she looked. We siblings talked about mom and her glasses, but we didn't actually tell her personally.

Today was another sewing group meeting that I missed. With my being up and down all day, fuzzy headed and blurry sight there is no way I could make it in to be with them. Actually, since this last chemo I have been finding it overwhelming to stay up and chat on the phone. Can you imagine... Marie at a loss for words? With the computer I can type, lay down, get up and type again. It may take all day, but until I shut down the words are there and I don't have to keep trying to focus on my thoughts from five minutes before. This is only day four since chemo ended, and it is better than yesterday. I will not give up. Each day there is something to be grateful for if you look for it.

Found a cute sign: LORD help my words to be tender and gracious today, for tomorrow I may have to eat them.

Second site...

I am locating my research on a second site. You can click the address below to this second location.12/01/10 Now that I know my diagnosis, the research will go on this second site.01/23/11 Okay, I am tech challenged. The below second site is still labeled as kidney cancer because I can't change it. I am persistent... and will figure it out, as well as how to advertise it so that people can find it. It just may be a while with my current "foggy head" status.

Class reunion - 45th...

August 27, 2011... think back 45 years ago...

It is difficult to think that so many years have passed since wandering the halls of Santa Rosa High School. What were our dreams, visions, and thoughts back then?

Santa Rosa High School Fight Song... all of these years later is still the same. At every football game, this was voiced in unison. Also during this time, Junior was the "Panda" mascot, dressed in costume at each game.

Santa Rosa, Santa Rosa, fight on for your fame!Pass the ball right down the center,Touch down sure this time,Rah, rah, rah!Santa Rosa, Santa Rosa, fight on for your fame!Fight fella, fight, fight, fight!We'll win this game!

Doctors I am going to... click on each for information.

Imagine, a hat with bangs. Well, this is really me... but, I have just discovered chemo hats with bangs, sleep ones, frilly ones, soooo many to choose from. If I need this service, it will be nice to have the variety!

Happy Birthday...

Happy Birthday to anyone having their big day in June and July...Happy Birthday and Happy Father's Day, and Happy Fourth of July all in one big hug.

I am sorry for those who I have not sent a card to. Since being on chemo, I have been getting things mixed up and remember "with guilt" later. I will get better once this is done.

"Family" ~ my computer is not cooperating, or I cannot focus... hmmm... bet that's it. More pictures to come. Also, still trying to figure out why some I can enlarge, others I can't.

Some of the pictures are mine, others I borrowed as I cannot find my cords to transfer pictures from my camera. Cannot find discs either. They are in a safe place, just where I put them, just can't remember where. Right now bet I could hide my own Easter eggs, and go on the hunt too.

Haven't forgotten other family pictures that I want to add here, will do it soon... promise!
